The search for the female G-spot -- that supposedly erotic pleasure button somewhere in the vagina -- has become like the search for the Lost City of Atlantis. Some insist it's real and that they've found it; others insist it's a myth; and still others say it was never lost, it's just part of an island we've known about all along, an extension of the clitoris.
Now a surgeon from Florida is insisting he's not only solved the mystery, but that he's held the G-spot in his hands.
Dr. Adam Ostrzenski, a surgeon and retired professor of gynecology, who now practices "cosmetic gynecology" in St. Petersburg, reports in an article in the Journal of Sexual Medicine today that he found the G-spot in an 83-year-old Polish woman. It is, he told msnbc.com, not an extension of the clitoris, as many experts believe, but a discrete structure angling away from the urethra.
He based his search, he says, on previous investigations and readings dating as far back as the third century A.D.
"I incorporated that into my protocol for how to identify where to go" in the vagina, he explains. "I put this together. My entire life has been surgery and developing new surgical techniques…and now, of course, there is the excitement of being the first human being to see and touch this structure."
The bizarre G-spot controversy that has gone on for nearly 40 years, he says, "should be resolved."
The question is: Has the doctor done it?
First, Ostrzenski dissected a cadaver, so there is no way to know how the ropy, bluish structure he displays in his paper functioned other than that it seemed to be erectile. Second, the woman was 83-years-old, about 30 years past menopause and its dramatic hormonal shifts. Third, she is just one woman.
"It's speculation," Dr. Amichai Kilchevsky, a Connecticut urological surgeon who has conducted his own investigation into the G-spot, says. "It is almost impossible to say what it is, based on what he describes."
It could be some sort of gland, an extension of the clitoris as some have long maintained, or something else entirely. Without any functional information or even a sexual history of the woman and whether or not she was orgasmic, nobody can claim much of anything, says the urological surgeon and researcher.
Yet, Ostrzenski told msnbc.com, over 50 reporters from all over the world have called him to prepare stories on his "discovery," evidence of a kind of G-spot mania. The G-spot (like everything) has even become political, with some women arguing that G-spot denial is an anti-woman slander meant to keep women from fulfilling their sexual potential.
It's also become a business. A German doctor named Ernst Gränfenberg first described the spot, supposedly an inch or two inside the vagina on the anterior wall (facing the front of a woman, not the back) in 1953. Then, in 1982, a book called The G-Spot: And Other Discoveries about Human Sexuality popularized Gräfenberg's findings. Now, sex toy manufacturers sell G-spot stimulators, publishers offer G-spot how-to books, and surgeons offer "G-spot augmentation" meant to enhance sexual pleasure.
"Certainly, if we can prove there is a G-spot, and we could enhance it, surgeons could benefit," Kilchevsky says.
But maybe not the patients. The dark side of the mania is that many women who've come to believe the G-spot is real say they can't find it, or that they don't have it. They worry they're doing something wrong, or that they are defective in some way, and missing out on sexual pleasure.
As Dr. Rachel Pauls, a uro-gynecologist at Cincinnati's Good Samaritan Hospital told msnbc.com back in 2008, "I see patients looking for the G-spot, and they come to see the doctor because they are so upset they cannot find it."
"There is such a huge psychology of this," argues Kilchevsky. "Women who say they experience vaginal orgasms may be experiencing clitoral stimulation and not the G-spot. Finding a G-spot isn't going to help women understand their bodies. If anything, it might upset women if they feel they can't experience it."
Ostrzenski says he understands that the controversy won't die based on this one paper. He has plans to return to Poland next month to dissect more, younger cadavers, and to conduct more in-depth analysis of the structure, partly in preparation for "clinical applications."
"I am close to putting the putting the controversy to rest completely," he says.
That's doubtful. But not the end of the world -- or good sex. After all, women and their sexual partners don't have to pay any attention at all to the G-spot. All they have to do is figure out what feels good, and do it.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – A 19-year-old Gainesville man was arrested early Tuesday morning in connection with a 2011 sexual battery case.
Andre Locus was arrested at a home in the 4400 block of Northwest 31st Avenue.
Investigators said that on Monday they received forensic evidence that positively linked Locus to an April 2011 case where he forced his way into a home in the 1200 block of Southwest First Avenue with a knife and raped a female student at knife point. Police said Locus then stole her personal electronics and fled the area.
When Locus was arrested, he had property on him that was stolen from another recent occupied residential burglary in the 1100 block of Southwest First Avenue, police said.
After his arrest, Locus took investigators to a stash of property that is likely stolen from numerous burglaries in the area, police said. They said information is still being collected in the other unsolved cases.
Police said Locus is also considered a person of interest in the recent Southwest 10th Street armed residential burglary and sexual battery of a University of Florida student.

Omega and Liver Inflammation
From: Andy Soos, ENN.com
Omega-3 fatty acids are fats commonly found in marine and plant oils. Research at Oregon State University has found that one particular omega-3 fatty acid has a powerful effect in preventing liver inflammation and fibrosis — common problems that are steadily rising along with the number of Americans who are overweight.
Some of the other potential health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids supplementation remain controversial. They are considered essential fatty acids, meaning that they cannot be synthesized by the human body but are vital for normal metabolism.
The study, published online in the Journal of Nutrition, was one of the first to directly compare the effects of two of the omega-3 fatty acids often cited for their nutritional value, DHA and EPA.
In research with laboratory animals, it found that EPA had comparatively little effect on preventing the fibrosis, or scarring, that's associated with NASH. However, DHA supplementation reduced the proteins involved in liver fibrosis by more than 65 percent.
"A reduction of that magnitude in the actual scarring and damage to the liver is very important," said Donald Jump, a principal investigator with the Linus Pauling Institute at OSU and a professor in the College of Public Health and Human Sciences.
Jump said: "Our studies may represent the first to specifically compare the capacity of EPA versus DHA to prevent NASH. It appears that DHA, which can also be converted to EPA in the human body, is one of the most valuable for this purpose."
NASH is a progressive form of liver disease that is associated with chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, resulting from excess fat storage in the liver. Chronic inflammation can eventually lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis, or even liver cancer. While management of lifestyle, including weight loss and exercise, is one approach to control the onset and progression of fatty liver disease, other approaches are needed to prevent and treat it.
The levels of omega-3 oils needed vary with the health concern, officials say.
"Omega-3 fatty acids are typically recommended for the prevention of cardiovascular disease," Jump said. "Recommended intake levels of omega-3 fatty acids in humans for disease prevention are around 200-500 milligrams of combined DHA and EPA per day."
Omega-3 fatty acids have mild antihypertensive effects. When subjects consumed omega-3 fatty acids from oily fish on a regular basis, their systolic blood pressure was lowered by about 3.5—5.5 mmHg. Eating a diet high in fish that contain long chain omega-3 fatty acids does appear to decrease the risk of stroke. However evidence does not support a beneficial role for omega-3 fatty acid supplementation in preventing cardiovascular disease (including myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death) or stroke.
Levels used in therapy to lower blood triglycerides, also a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, are higher, about 2-4 grams of combined EPA and DHA per day. The OSU studies with mice used DHA at levels comparable to the triglyceride therapies.
"DHA was more effective than EPA at attenuating inflammation, oxidative stress, fibrosis and hepatic damage," the researchers wrote in their conclusion. "Based on these results, DHA may be a more attractive dietary supplement than EPA for the prevention and potential treatment of NASH in obese humans."
Not all is good though. In a letter published October 31, 2000, the United States Food and Drug Administration Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition noted that known or suspected risks of EPA and DHA consumed in excess of 3 grams per day may include risk from potential increased bleeding and oxidation of omega-3 fatty acids, forming biologically active oxidation products.

A bit of clarification regarding the impending Armageddon scheduled for 6:00pm this coming Saturday May 21, no matter where you are. (see details below).
As a former geo-physicist (I took one course in college) this is one of those things like the fact that the earth is only 8000 years old.
What happens to the tectonic plates is that they become perfectly synchronized in a standing Q wave, much like the orbit of a geo-synchronous satellite. That way it is a simple matter for God to coordinate a simultaneous "time stands still" phenomenon for all of creation.
In the spirit of "wherever you go – there you are" all humans (no other creatures because we are the only ones with souls) will experience the rapture at precisely 6:00 their time. There may be some consternation in those residing in close proximity to time zone boundaries upon seeing their friends perish or float away like cows in the film Twister, but this will be compensated for by the old Lutheran staple of Blind Faith (sins Clapton).
The end-of-the-world FAQ sheet
As you probably already know, a worldwide earthquake will strike at 6 p.m. (local time) Saturday, May 21, alerting the human race that Judgment Day has begun. Or so says Family Radio president Harold Camping.
Camping is very certain that the Rapture will occur.
"There's nothing in the Bible that holds a candle to the amount of information to this tremendous truth of the end of the world," he told New York Magazine. "I would be absolutely in rebellion against God if I thought anything other than it is absolutely going to happen without any question."
Not everyone is as informed about Judgment Day as Camping, of course. With that in mind, here are a few answers to frequently asked questions about the End of Days:
Q: Who gets to ascend to heaven?
A: Those who accept Christ as the messiah. Even Jews are invited, says Camping, but only if they accept Christ – which would seem to make them no longer Jewish.
Q: How many will be Raptured?
A: Campbell estimates 200 million. The remaining nearly 7 billion face a grisly fate – crushed in the quake, burned by sulfur, turned into pillars of salt, etc.
Harold Camping disciple Julie Baker preaches doom in New York.
Q: Why May 21?
A: Camping calculates May 21 is exactly 7,000 years from the date of the Noah's Ark flood. In his book "Time Has an End," Camping writes. "The year 391 B.C. is the year when the Old Testament was finished, and 2,011 + 391 – 1 = 2,401, or 7 x 7 x 7 x 7." There you have it.
Q: Any other reason?
A: Yes. Gay Pride and same-sex marriage. Camping says God will punish America and the rest of the world for Gay Pride and same-sex marriages, just as Sodom and Gomorrah were punished with fire and brimstone in the Old Testament.
Q: Will the Earth end on May 21?
A: No. The Earth will stick around for a few more months of "chaos and awful suffering" before being obliterated Oct. 21.
Q: Didn't Camping predict the end of the world would take place in September 1994?
A: Yes, but the book in which he made the prediction was titled "1994?". The question mark makes all the difference.
Q: Will the Rapture happen sooner in Australia, like New Year's celebrations?
A: Yes. May 21st begins first on Kiritimati Island, a Pacific Ocean atoll, so presumably the earthquake would strike there first.
Q: If I'm Raptured, what will happen to my pets?
A: Probably nothing good. However, a business called Eternal Earthbound Pets run by "confirmed atheists" offers to save pets left behind and ensure their care in 26 states. It lists a fee of $135 for a single pet ($20 each for additional pets), but has raised rates due to "increased activity associated with the May 21, 2011 Rapture." Pets are limited to dogs, cats, birds rabbits and small caged mammals in most states. Four states can accommodate horses, camels, llamas and donkeys.
Q: Are exploding watermelons in China a sign?
A: Yes.

Awesome car.... except for that one thing
By MDenum on Wednesday, October 23, 2019I purchased the 2020 Corolla Hybrid. I'm averaging 53.2 MPG, which is definitely a step up from the Cadillac ATS that I traded in. The car is super sound. Road noise is minimal and engine noise is nearly nonexistent. The interior is very comfortable and the climate controls and multimedia setup is laid out perfectly with just enough physical button to touchscreen ratio. The drive is smooth and I only felt the big potholes. My only complaint is that the interior finishes feel a little cheap but most importantly, the entune3.0 interface for audio and gps is absolutely terrible. Entune constantly reads an error or update required on the touchscreen and the Scout gps app only functions half the time. Android users might want to consider another option for a vehicle, or switch to iPhone. This is still a fantastic car with only minor inconveniences that I myself can live with.

With all the bells and whistles, like the lane assist, sport or eco drive mode, and the huge standard 8" touch screen, this car practically drives itself, and soo smoothly too! The price is right, the car is comfortable and sporty, and makes you want to drive it all day long! Take one for a spin, you won't be disappointed!
- 5.0

Gospel Mennonite Church (Mountain Lake, Minnesota, USA)
Gospel Mennonite Church (General Conference Mennonite), located in Mountain Lake, Cottonwood County, Minnesota, started about 1878 as "Wall's" Church. In 1889 the name was changed to Bergfelder Church. After 1943 it had the name Gospel Mennonite. It was a member of the Northern District Conference. The first settlers arrived in 1875 from Molotschna settlement in South Russia. Aron Wall was the first elder. Other ministers have been his brother Henry Wall, Theodor Nickel, and Jacob Harms. Aron Wall was also an able bonesetter (Knochenarzt). About 1888 Aron Wall left the church with a group to found the later E.M.B. Church of Mountain Lake. The Bethel Church of Mountain Lake, with H. H. Regier and later J. J. Balzer as leaders, is also a daughter of the Gospel Mennonite Church. The first church was built in 1878, and remodeled in 1913. The church had a beautiful location overlooking the lake. The members in the 1950s were mostly farmers. Preaching was in the English language, with occasional German services. In the homes mostly Low German was still spoken in the 1950s. The membership in 1953 was 259, with John P. Sudermann as pastor.

On View: September 9, 2002 - January 10, 2003
Opening Reception: Sunday, October 6, 3-5 pm
Archetype/Anonymous: Biblical Women in Contemporary Art will be on view at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion Museum from September 9, 2002 through January 10, 2003. Contemporary artists chose biblical women as subjects for works of art in an effort to creatively interpret the varied aspects of these iconic figures. They challenge the biblical tradition that has dominated Western civilization in an effort to examine the core meaning of the text. Through art, they depict images beyond the imagined or expected.
Over the last three decades biblical scholarship has given unprecedented attention to the women portrayed in the Bible. Literature produced by this scholarship explores the status and role of women in biblical texts and in the ancient world that produced them. Biblical materials often determine attitudes and policies that affect women's lives. The enduring political and religious impact of the Bible on Western society is colored by the many ways in which biblical figures have been portrayed in postbiblical culture.
Male as well as female artists have turned to the Bible to choose subject matter. The artists, including Suzanne Benton, Matt Blackwell, Judy Chicago, Julie Dermansky, Ayana Friedman, Janet Goldner, Maty Grunberg, Carol Hamoy, Barbara Rose Haum, Tobi Kahn, Avner Moriah, Archie Rand, Deborah Rosenthal, Laura Lazar Siegel, Joan Snyder, Miriam Stern, Selina Trieff, Joyce Ellen Weinstein, and Ruth Weisberg, challenge stereotypes and the andocentric nature of biblical record and centuries of translation that have paid little attention to biblical women, many of whom are unnamed. The artists use color, material, texture, and technique to emphasize the spiritual power of the Biblical stories through artistic expression.
Laura Kruger, Curator of the HUC-JIR Museum, noted: " The choice of an emblematic yet enigmatic figure reflects a personal search for a deeper significance in a rapidly changing world. In the last century the status of Western women greatly altered. The values attributed to the women of the Bible: piety, loyalty, resourcefulness, hope, tenacity, and protection of the family are no less valid at this moment then they were four thousand years ago. Changed, for women of the West, are the circumstances of independence and intellectual freedom. Women are no longer choiceless, bound by the rigid restrictions of an ancient society. It is the woman as activist, as historical persona that most artists choose to depict."

Hi All,
My friends' bunny recently died (cancer), and I took the cage from her as a travel cage for my ferrets, however she also gave me all the extra rabbit stuff she had. I dont know anyone with a rabbit, or other small animal that would be able to use the bits, so if anyone wants the following batch (for free), then they're welcome to it:
- Unopened package of wood chips
- 3/4 bag of some kind of Rabbit Food (not sure what brand)
- Pink igloo like rabbit house
- 2 or 3 salt lick things
- Possibly other things in the box, I didn't look too closely, but thats the majority of the things.
The only thing is that all of the above is located in Mississauga, Ontario - I don't want to ship it, or anything like that - but it is available for anyone who is willing to pick it up.
I guess post a message here, or PM me if you're interested

About Steve Eulberg
View Full Biography
An Award-winning multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter, Steve Eulberg weaves mountain and hammered dulcimers with a variety of unusual instruments to create thought-provoking, smile-inducing, toe-tapping acoustic experiences.
He has sung and composed for religious communities, union halls, picket lines, inter-faith retreats, mountain-top youth camps, as well as the more familiar venues: clubs, coffeehouses, bookstores, festivals, charity benefits and showcase concerts.
Born and raised in the German-heritage town of Pemberville, Ohio, Steve was exposed to a variety of music in his home. Early piano lessons were followed by trumpet in school band, and he became self-taught on ukelele and guitar and harmonica. Mandolin was added at Capital University where, while majoring in History, he studied Ear Training, Voice and took Arranging lessons from the Conservatory of Music.
While at college, he first heard hammered and mountain dulcimers, building his first mountain dulcimer just before his final year. Seminary training took him the west side of Denver where he built his first hammered dulcimer. With these instruments, he was able to give voice to the Scottish, English and Irish traditions to which he is also heir.
Following marriage in 1985 to Connie Winter-Eulberg he settled in Kansas City, Missouri. There he worked cross-culturally in a church of African-Americans, Latinos and European Americans, with music being a primary organizing tool. He moved with his family in 1997 to be nestled beside the Rocky Mountains in Fort Coillins, Colorado.
Founder of Owl Mountain Music, Inc. he teaches and performs extensively in Colorado and Wyoming with tours across the US and the UK. He delights in introducing the "sweet music†of dulcimers to people in diverse settings and in addition to his own recordings, has included dulcimers in a variety of session work for other musicians.
In 2000 he was commissioned to create a choral composition featuring dulcimers for the Rainbow Chorus in Fort Collins. It was recorded in the same year (BEGINNINGS). He is currently at work on a commissioned symphony that will feature hammered dulcimer and Australian didjeridu.
Eulberg passionately believes that music crosses cultural and language barriers because music builds community. Influenced by a variety of ethnic styles, his music weaves vital lyric with rap, rock, folk, gospel and blues. Audiences of all ages respond well to his presentation and to his warm sense of humor.
Steve is a member of Local 1000 (AFM), The Folk Alliance, BMI and BWAAG (Better World Artists and Activist's Guild).

Mike H."I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar!"
I am 66 years young and I still got it! I would have never known this if it had not been for Jamplay! I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar! Ha! I cannot express enough how great you're website is! It is for beginners and advanced pickers! I am an advanced picker and thought I had lost it but thanks to you all, I found it again! Even though I only play by ear, I have been a member a whopping whole two weeks now and have already got Brent's country shuffle and country blues down and of course with embellishments. Thank you all for your wonderful program!
Greg J."With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace"
I'm a fifty eight year old newbie who owns a guitar which has been sitting untouched in a corner for about seven years now. Last weekend I got inspired to pick it up and finally learn how to play after watching an amazing Spanish guitarist on TV. So, here I am. I'm starting at the beginning with Steve Eulberg and I couldn't be happier (except for the sore fingers :) Some day I'm going to play like Steve! I'm self employed with a hectic schedule. With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace, rewinding and replaying the videos until I get it. This is a very enjoyable diversion from my work yet I still feel like I'm accomplishing something worthwhile. Thanks a lot, Greg
Bill"I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students."
I am commenting here to tell you and everyone at JamPlay that I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students. I truly enjoy learning to play the guitar on JamPlay.com. Yes, I said the words, ""enjoy learning."" It is by far the best deal for the money.

DURHAM – Full integration of the University of New Hampshire School of Law with UNH will soon be under way after governing bodies for both institutions recently voted unanimously to begin the process. The integration is expected to be complete early in 2014.
The University System of New Hampshire Board of Trustees voted Friday, Feb. 1. The UNH School of Law Board of Trustees voted Friday, Jan. 25, to fully integrate the law school with UNH. When the two institutions approved an affiliation agreement in 2010 it was with the understanding that integration was the likely next step if the expected benefits of affiliation were realized. The affiliation agreement stipulated that a motion for integration could first be considered on or after Jan. 1, 2013.
"The affiliation agreement allowed us to begin exploring ways we could build upon the respective strengths of both institutions. We've forged fruitful research collaborations, launched dual degree programs, and leveraged the law school's strength in intellectual property with our Office of Research Partnerships and Commercialization. Full integration will propel us further still," UNH President Mark Huddleston said. "We're excited to keep the momentum going."
In less than three years two joint programs, a dual JD/MBA and a dual JD/master's in social work, have been launched. In addition, there have been faculty exchanges and other educational programs that pair the law school's historic leadership, especially in intellectual property law, with the research being conducted at UNH.
When the integration is complete the primary location of the School of Law will still be in Concord, expanding the university's presence in the state capital. All faculty and staff will become USNH employees, and a number of efficiencies are expected to be realized.
"This is a historic day for the UNH School of Law," UNH Law Dean John Broderick said. "Together, the university and the law school will create opportunities for teaching, learning, and research that will make each institution stronger and better positioned to create the leaders of tomorrow."
The University of New Hampshire, founded in 1866, is a world-class public research university with the feel of a New England liberal arts college. A land, sea, and space-grant university, UNH is the state's flagship public institution, enrolling 12,200 undergraduate and 2,300 graduate students.

Gov. Gregoire meeting with feds over marijuana law
Washington state Gov. Chris Gregoire will meet with Deputy Attorney General James Cole on Tuesday to discuss the state's recent passage of a measure to legalize and tax the sale of marijuana for recreational use.
Associated Press
OLYMPIA, Wash. —
Washington state Gov. Chris Gregoire will meet with Deputy Attorney General James Cole on Tuesday to discuss the state's recent passage of a measure to legalize and tax the sale of marijuana for recreational use.
Gregoire spokesman Cory Curtis said Monday that the meeting was added to a slate the governor had already scheduled in Washington, D.C., on other state matters. But on the issue of marijuana, Curtis said Gregoire wanted to meet with federal officials because "we want direction from them."
"Our goal is to respect the will of the voters, but give us some clarity," he said.
Initiative 502 passed with 55 percent of the vote last week. The measure decriminalizes the possession of up to an ounce of marijuana beginning Dec. 6, but the state has a year to come up with rules governing the state-licensed growing, processing and labeling of pot before sales to adults over 21 can begin. It also establishes a standard blood test limit for driving under the influence.
Home-growing marijuana for recreational reasons remains barred, as does the public display or use of pot.
Colorado also passed a measure legalizing the drug. Colorado's governor and attorney general spoke by phone Friday with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, with no signal whether the U.S. Justice Department would sue to block the marijuana measure.
If Colorado's marijuana ballot measure is not blocked, it would take effect by Jan. 5, the deadline for the governor to add the amendment to the state constitution. The measure allows adults to possess up to an ounce of marijuana, and six marijuana plants, though public use of the drug and driving while intoxicated are prohibited.
Colorado's measure also directs lawmakers to write regulations on how pot can be sold, with commercial sales possible by 2014.
Gregoire went to D.C. on Monday for a meeting with the Council of Governors and Army Lt. Gen. Frank Grass at the Pentagon to discuss National Guard issues, and for another meeting with Energy Secretary Steven Chu to discuss plans to deal with a leak at a large, double-walled tank of waste at Hanford, the nation's most contaminated nuclear site.
Curtis said that the meeting with Cole was added to her schedule on Monday.
"Our biggest concern is that the state has a fairly big startup cost in creating the whole licensing and regulating scheme around this," he said. "We want some sort of clarity on this before we get a year down the road on the process."
Gregoire will return to Washington state on Tuesday night.

You have to love how the sports seasons align. It really is brilliant. Just when the NFL season ends, college basketball gets good. Just when the Final Four ends, baseball starts and the NBA Playoffs are just around the riverbend.
For those who have not been paying attention, this has been a good year to be an NBA fan. A few reasons:
1. Kobe vs. Lebron
David Stern must be loving life right now with these two guys playing in his league. The two best players in the world happen to be playing on the two best teams in the league. They both have charasmatic personalities and, by the time they're both done, they will have established themselves as 2 of the top-10 players of all-time. Yes, I just said that.
2. Lakers vs. Celtics
Everybody likes history. Having these two teams once again part of the league's elite has been fun to watch. The only thing better than seeing these two teams clash again in the Finals would be seeing Kobe vs. Lebron in the Finals.
3. A Lot of Fun-to-Watch Talent
Dwight Howard is a physical freak. Chris Paul brings the playground to the NBA and does it well. Dwayne Wade is an absolute stud (in the class of Kobe and Lebron, but his team keeps him out of the #1 discussion above). Chauncey Billups is reminding people that he is really good at basketball regardless of the team he's on. Brandon Roy is the new guy in town, and is making me more resentful of Kevin McHale with each game he plays (the T-Wolves drafted him and then traded him).
4. The Spurs Aren't Favorites
I'll be the first to say that I appreciate how the Spurs play. The Big Fundamental is consistently underappreciated. But I'll also be the first to say that they are boring. Effective? Extremely. Entertaining? No. They'll make the playoffs, but now that Manu Ginobli is gone for the season, they won't get far. That leaves room for more fan-friendly teams like the Blazers and Jazz and…everybody else.
5. The East is Back
The Eastern Conference has basically been the JV version of the West since Michael Jordan retired (from the Bulls). But now the East is home to 3 of the top 4 teams in the league with the Cavs, Celtics, and Magic leading the way. Not to mention, the Atlanta Hawks play a pretty fun brand of team basketball, and Dwayne Wade always makes the Heat a dangerous squad.
Lesson for today: watch the NBA Playoffs this year. You will not be disappointed.

Moving to the Cloud? Engage Internal Audit Upfront to Manage Risks
Cloud computing can yield significant benefits, from increasing speed to market and achieving better economies of scale to improving organizational flexibility and trimming spending on technology infrastructure and software licensing. As organizations increasingly migrate to cloud computing, however, they could be putting their data at significant risk. Those risks include reduced levels of control as information technology (IT) departments are bypassed, as some business owners opt to obtain services more quickly and cheaply by creating their own "rogue" technology environments via the cloud.
Positioning the internal audit (IA) function at the forefront of cloud implementation and engaging IA in discussions with the business and IT early on can help address potential risks. "Internal auditors view the business through a risk lens," says Michael Juergens, a principal at Deloitte & Touche LLP. "With their deep understanding of risk mitigation, internal auditors can work with the business and the IT function to build a framework for assessing and mitigating the risks associated with cloud computing."
Broadly defined, cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources and services, which can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. The IA function can provide assurance on the effectiveness of risk mitigation efforts tied to cloud utilization, explains Mr. Juergens. "Before entering into agreements with cloud vendors or potential customers, a thorough assessment of the current vendor procurement process should be conducted by IA to determine how to mitigate cloud risks the company may be taking on," he says. "And while an organization's information security group can build cloud monitoring capabilities, IA can assist and assess the effectiveness of the control environment and prevent the IT department being left out of the loop."
A Steady Migration to the Cloud
Companies are migrating to the cloud in such numbers because of significant advantages it can provide. Once the migration to cloud functionality is complete, organizations no longer face the task of creating and maintaining large data centers and developing proprietary complex systems. The expense of software upgrades or application patches is carried by the provider, which can allocate these costs across a wide customer base. Freed from large up-front capital investments, time-consuming installation and hefty maintenance costs, IT departments can focus on value-added activities that promote the business. While not every organization today has fully embraced cloud computing, chances are cloud services will be the norm within the next decade.
The growing consumer use of social media and mobile technologies has also added to the demand for cloud services, as businesses seek better and faster ways to reach out to existing and potential customers. Some companies go beyond using the cloud to provide customer services. For instance, in an effort to focus its IT operations on business services, an online video rental and streaming company moved its internal applications to a cloud service provider and began using software as a service (SaaS) applications. Even governments are getting in on the game: A large metropolitan city equipped all its employees with an application for both email and cloud-based collaboration.
"The shift to cloud computing has essentially extended the boundaries of the traditional computer processing environment to include multiple service providers," says Khalid Wasti, a director at Deloitte & Touche LLP. "This brings a complex set of risks to an organization's data as it travels through the cloud." When a company opts for the speed and convenience of moving to the cloud, it must often relinquish control not only of its own data, but that of its customers. Confidentiality, security and service continuity become critical considerations—as does regulatory compliance, which remains the responsibility of the business," Mr. Wasti adds.
How IA Can Help Assess Risks
As an initial step, an organization should work with IA to create a Cloud Risk Framework Tool. "The tool can help the organization get to the heart of risks by providing a view on the pervasive, evolving and interconnected nature of risks associated with cloud computing," adds Mr. Wasti. These include governance, risk management and compliance; delivery strategy and architecture; infrastructure security; identity and access management; data management; business resiliency and availability; and IT operations. Such a tool can also improve efficiency in compliance and risk management efforts and be used to develop risk event scenarios that require integrated responses.
To be more effective, the tool should be customized to include regulatory, geographic, industry and other specific issues that impact the organization. As IA modifies its organizational risk framework and guides the risk conversation with IT and the business, the following issues pertaining to infrastructure security, identity and access management and data management should be taken into account.
1. Infrastructure Security—Companies should verify that cloud providers have acceptable procedures in areas such as key generation, exchange, storage and safeguarding, as flawed security could result in the exposure of infrastructure or data.
- Are there security vulnerabilities that might have been introduced by other customers sharing the same environment? Are security patches performed in a timely manner?
- What is the risk that a denial-of-service attack will occur, and how will the organization respond?
- What security practices should be introduced as part of the move to the cloud? Do conflicting customer priorities have the potential to compromise cloud service security?
- If the organization is unable to independently test security, what are the implications?
- Has the vendor developed an encryption and key-management process?
- Who should manage the keys?
2. Identity and Access Management—Organizations should consider how their authorization and access models will integrate with new cloud services and assess whether they are using appropriate identity and authorization schemes.
- Can internal and cloud-based identity management components be securely integrated?
- Has the organization conducted adequate due diligence prior to assigning cloud management privileges?
- Are there proper access controls for cloud management interfaces?
- Has the cloud provider implemented segregation of duties for its staff?
3. Data Management—Because organizations may have to relinquish control over their data to cloud providers, it is crucial that they fully understand how data will be handled in the cloud environment.
- Will the complexity of multiple cloud data stores compromise data retention?
- What is the risk of unauthorized access to or inappropriate use of sensitive data, and how will this be handled? How will the cloud vendor notify the organization of a violation?
- Will transfer of data between jurisdictions violate any data privacy laws?
- Will the organization be able to remove data from multiple cloud data stores?
Moving Forward
Implementing a cloud strategy changes the risk landscape in profound ways. As some risks are minimized, others spring up in their place. "Recognizing and responding to this shifting organizational risk profile is IA's purview," says Charlie Willis, a senior manager at Deloitte & Touche LLP. "Because internal auditors understand the interplay between business processes and risk, they can help business leaders to articulate their appetite for risk and help develop strategies for mitigating it," he adds. As the organization adopts technology initiatives that involve cloud computing, IA should consider taking proactive steps to:
- Engage stakeholders—Encourage IT and business executives to have an informed conversation about the move to the cloud. Help stakeholders understand the potential for rogue IT environments. Explore which applications and data are candidates for transfer to a cloud environment and be prepared to discuss the risk implications of the move.
- Review the organizational risk framework—Revise the company's risk framework, minimizing risks that are no longer a concern. This framework tool should measure the organization's cloud capability state across the different cloud risk domains.
- Evaluate potential cloud vendors—IT will be most familiar with the range of vendors, and the business leaders will be able to articulate the objectives of a move to the cloud. But IA should also be engaged in risk discussions, along with the organization's security, risk and compliance groups, and help the organization develop an assessment profile for vendors.

Copied from the FAQs on the IrfanView website:
Q: Can I use IrfanView on Mac?
A: Yes, probably. There is no native-Mac version of IrfanView. However, you can use IrfanView in conjunction with Mac program like WineBottler/DARWINE. Take the ZIP version of IrfanView and unzip it or copy your existing Windows IrfanView folder to Mac. This is easier because the installer may need additional Windows DLLs to run.
